Special events & promotions

Our open-air Bier Garden, when not being used for Brew Fests and Oktoberfest, is also a wedding venue. It contains areas for both ceremony and reception, where we feature a bridal suite for the bride and bridal party to prepare for the event, a bar with all of our beers and food prepared by our Black Angus chef. The nearby Stoudtburg village houses small businesses, including a hair salon, and is a great venue for pictures.

Lady Bel Swiss is made from the milk of Brown Swiss Cows, which is a little bit lower in Fat than the Jersey milk we use for all of our other cheeses. Lady Bel is a sweet caramel version of a Swiss, probably the lowest in salt of all of our aged cheese. We love the big holes that are created from ProBionic acids during the aging process. Kayak Matt cold smokes this cheese for over 8 hours with locally collected apple wood which make this a really special table cheese

YaMustaSeededCumin

A perfectly balanced flavor duo of mustard and cumin seeds doing a dutch style polka in a pasteurized Jersey Cow's milk cheese. Wonderful good with a pint of our Gold Lager!

Ferdinand

Cheese made from pressing curds that were steeped for hours in our Fat Dog Stout

Steaks

New York Sirloin - Very flavorful and excellent marbling with outside fat removed Filet Mignon - Known to be the most expensive and tender cut of meat, the chain and silver skin completely removed Steaks are served with chef's choice of starch, vegetable garnish and local mushroom Hunter sauce

Wonderful farm to table restaurant. Excellent hand-cut steaks, cooked perfectly. Wonderful artisanal cheeses. Not formal but excellent food and very well prepared. Service was fantastic and decor was fun and authentic.

My son and I took my husband to The Black Angus for an early Father's Day lunch. He loves brewery tours and trying different beer. Sadly, they only have tours on the weekend, but it wasn't stated on their website. Our waitress (Veronica) was great. Kind and attentive. The food was local and awesome! We brought a couple growlers and the bartender happily filled them. We also visited the cheese store and bout cheese (that they make right there) and bread that was still warm! It has a quirky, fun decor. It was terrific. But remember, if you want a brewery tour.... that's only Saturday and Sunday.

This was our first time there and we were not disappointed. We had the delicious pretzel for our appetizer.My husband loved his oysters and mussels. The chocolate mousse purse dessert was awesome. We will definitely be going back.

Overall, it's an OK place to eat. On this particular night the waitress accidentally spilled a glass of water all over the table and onto my lap. She was very apologetic about it, but most restaurants would've at least offered a free dessert, especially since we had told her that we were there to celebrate my wife's birthday. We've found this before at this place. They are not usually apologetic, nor do they offer any compensation, if there's a problem. This leaves a little bit of a bad taste in the mouth, to pardon the expression. As far as the food, I've had better filet mignons,. It was fatty and not as tender as it could be, but acceptable. At least it wasn't the inedible prime rib we had there a few years ago that made us not return for a few years (we complained, but they didn't seem to care). We'd go back, but mostly because there aren't too many other nice restaurants in the immediate Adamstown area.

Very good steak & fingerling potatoes! The salad was unexceptional - limp greens with a bit of carrot, onion & cucumber - and the dressing was very vinegary. It would have been nice if they served some good crusty bread, but none was offered. Stoudt's IPA was very good.

The atmosphere was ok, but a bit tacky with beer bottles and steins for decor. It did get rather loud when a beer hopping bus crowd arrived in the bar.

The food was just not good at all. My wife ordered a steak "well done" (I know...), it came out med-rare. The spaetzle was a very small portion under my very over-cooked schnitzel, and I swear the spaetzle was microwaved. It tasted more like ramen then spaetzle. The iced tea tasted like dirt. The service was just okay - not very observant at all. I was very disappointed and would not return or recommend this restaurant. Outback, Longhorn or heck, Applebees has better food.

Our food was nor prepared properly. Scallops were cold, steak undercooked. We had to send back three Of six meals. All in all, in was very bad. The quality of the food was good but there was not much if it. No bread on table. I felt bad for the waitress. She was almost in tears.

We went with three other couples and had a very nice time. Our waiter was really nice, but service was very slow. We didn't mind since we were there to spend time with friends, but keep that in mind if you have time constraints. The menu is very small, but with a good enough variety. My husband and I both ordered the fillet. It was cooked as requested, but was thinner than any fillet we've ever had. It had the thickness of a sirloin. I would definitely go again, but would not order the fillet. For the amount of money you pay for fillet, I expect a nice thick piece. In all, our meals were tasty and the beer is very good!

Very dated and very dark. Service was ok only because everyone pitched in. Waitress was overly busy. Food was ok, on the other hand, only Got a burger and fries. How bad could it be? Interestingly, had no mustard in the place. Really??

Could not drink the iced tea, tasted stale as if it had been sitting a while.

When we arrive the seating area was empty other than 2 other couples. Our drinks came rather quickly but our pretzel did not and it was over cooked. Our meal came out even slower and was nothing to be excited about. I had hoped for a better menu but about half of it was crossed off and what was available was nothing like what I had read about. The salmon my cousin ordered was horribly overcooked and chewy. We made a special trip out this direction to visit restaurants and breweries - this will not be on our list at all next time.

The steak sandwich could have used a little more filling, but the filet mignon was excellent. I was surprised that at the beginning of a long holiday weekend so many items were already sold out, even the fish and chips. As always, the craft beer selections were outstanding.

This restaurant had an old world charm to it and our waitress was great! We love oysters on the half shell--these were the best we have ever had! They had a nice red zinfandel, which isn't always on a restaurant's wine list. The filet mignon was delicious. We were seated in a booth along the wall with a cover. Very private and cozy. There were children at other tables, so the noise level was "moderate". The choices of beers was amazing, as there is a brewery next door. Can't wait to travel to Denver, PA and dine there again.

We went at noon for what we thought would be brunch on Father's Day Sunday. Was disappointed to find no brunch items on the menu. Food was ok - nothing special but not bad. It's a good place for a beer and lunch - don't think we would go there for a special occasion again. Maybe just if we were going antiquing in the area.

Found it simply as a hit on Open Table. Turned out to have very good food plus a micro brewery. Didn't know about the latter until I got there. Early 60's local restaurant with what looked to be, at one time, individual dining room, bar area, and dance hall/room. Now had a microbrewery attached. Would love to go back a few times. Good brew, good food, and authentic local color atmosphere.

The food was mediocre at best, bland and served lukewarm after a long wait. Our server seemed insufficiently trained and disappeared for long periods of time. Altogether, a disappointing dining experience.
